Do you do work for property managers?

Yes — we have ongoing maintenance arrangements with several Waikato property managers covering rental portfolios. Quick turnaround, photographic reporting, and direct invoicing. Get in touch about your portfolio.

Do you do insurance work?

Yes. We work with most insurers on remediation and damage repair. We'll deal with the assessor and project-manage the repair so you don't have to.

Is there a minimum job size?

Not really — we'd rather fix one tap properly than do a bad job on a half-day call-out. We do prioritise existing maintenance clients for small / urgent work.

Our Services

Property maintenance and repairs, done properly

Ongoing maintenance for homeowners, landlords, and commercial property managers across the Waikato. Fixed properly the first time.

What we offer

Repairs and maintenance we handle

From the awkward one-off to a portfolio-wide maintenance contract — same standard either way.

Fix or replace rotten cladding, weatherboards, soffits and exterior trims to keep your home weather-tight and looking good.

Exterior repairs

Fix or replace rotten cladding, weatherboards, soffits and exterior trims to keep your home weather-tight and looking good.

Interior repairs

Repair rotten or damaged floors, patch holes in walls or ceilings, adjust doors, windows and other hardware so they work smoothly, and refresh tired finishes.

Roofing & gutter repairs

Leaks, sagging gutters, blown-off flashing, broken tiles. We diagnose properly, fix once.

Deck & fence repairs

Replace rotten boards, re-set fence posts, repair handrails and gates. Often cheaper than a full rebuild.

Wet area repairs

Fix leaking showers, rotten floors, failed waterproofing and tired tiling. We sort water damage properly so it doesn't come back.

Preventative maintenance

Stay ahead of bigger issues with flashing checks, sealant renewal, drainage fixes, timber treatment and other routine upkeep.
